Excerpt from the Book Description:
What we have here then is the life of an ‘ordinary’ faithful pastor. He held no prestigious pulpit, he held no important professorship in theology. He founded no institution. He simply laboured in relative obscurity, but did so faithfully and with perseverance. Yes, he ultimately saw great revival. But along the way there were spiritually discouraging days in the nation, there was personal hardship (for example, the early death of children) and sacrifice (for example, in supporting the founding of the Free Church of Scotland he gave up his manse and church building) and years of no great visible fruit...keep readingA very encouraging little book!

At first when I saw Kilsyth I thought, "Alf's got the initials wrong," but I see that this book is about W. C.'s father. You're reading some good stuff my friend.
Thanks Paul. I read this little book a few months ago and plan on reading it again. Glad someone finally gave it better attention.
